slips and falls
Slip and falls or trips and falls that occur because of a hazard or defect on another person's property are called “premises liability” claims. Regardless of how or why a person enters a property, owners have a responsibility to maintain their property and to warn people who enter the premises of any unsafe conditions. If property owners fail to notify those on their land of a dangerous or potentially hazardous condition, they may be held legally responsible or "liable" for injuries that occur.
If you have been injured or are the survivor of a family member who has died in a slip and fall accident, you may be entitled to receive compensation for medical care, lost wages and other damages.
Slips and falls and trips and falls occur for many reasons including:
* Broken, uneven or cracked sidewalks
* Slippery or wet floors (often resulting from spills that are not timely cleaned)
* Defects in escalator and elevators
* Inadequate signage or "failure to warn" of a property's hazardous or unsafe condition.
Injured victims must demonstrate negligence in order to receive compensation. Working with personal injury attorneys who understand slip and fall or trip and fall cases can significantly improve your chances of proving negligence and being awarded damages. Many businesses and homeowners carry premises liability insurance; however, it often does not fully pay for your injuries.
Consult with an experienced premises liability lawyer before you speak with an insurance company representative. Insurance firms must minimize their costs to stay in business, so they will offer a settlement that represents their best interests -- not yours.
